New The Huntsman Kettle Kamado Grill from Spider coming.


 
I think he tends to decide which one he wants to win and manipulates his bespoke scoring to suit. I would have the weber 26 inch as the winner for what its worth!
 
Hoping to try out again soon. Been too swamped with house and personal stuff. My problem in the winter was I could not get it up to temp, even with two starters worth of Kingsford Professional. I am hoping nice weather now will be more suitable for high heat grilling. I have not any issues doing low and slow, even in cold weather. The temp control has worked fine for me.

That seems to be everyone’s biggest complaint. That the venom fan isn’t strong enough to get the huntsman up to, and maintain a high temp and the ambient temperature outside is preventing it from happening.
 
I believe that is the case. Next winter, I may try running WITHOUT the Venom and use the best lump charcoal I can find. But, in the end, it doesn't make sense to dump a barrel of charcoal into a Huntsman when I can pull out a Weber kettle, use my Recteq or gas grill and get all the winter grilling heat I need.

I am still in the trying stage, but summer grilling has to go better.
 
GIVING UP

After getting a talking to because I suggested using my Huntsman to grill pork chops last Sunday, I finally have thrown in the towel. My wife just cannot tolerate charcoal grilled food, so there is just no sense in me owning a high-end charcoal grill to just use a few times for myself. So, I have listed my Huntsman for sale. I wish I had bought the special “Black Edition” Recteq Bullseye Deluxe with the black porcelain body that was out at the same time I pre-ordered my Huntsman. I am not as keen on the stainless version of the Bullseye, although it is an excellent cooker. My wife at least will go along with pellet grill cooking.

While the Huntsman is not a good choice for high heat grilling in the winter, it performs wonderfully for low and slow bbq all year. It is built like a tank and is definitely an innovative design.

Sorry to hear that. You may want to change the first picture to be the one of the grill instead of the chicken. The chicken one could be any grill IMHO;-)

A couple of us were talking about that and what FBM does. The lead and a bunch of pictures after that ARE of the grill. Only the last few are cooks. Apparently FBM rotates pictures others see even though you select one as the “lead” picture.🤨 Have I mentioned how much I dislike FBM?!!! I may just have to ditch the food pics and add more of the grill.

I have only noticed the changing pics phenomena on items that I have saved. I usually see the same pics on the for sale page. I will have to check.
